Player reported pawns ignoring chop designations. Root cause:
ChopProvider/MineProvider iterated World.trees/World.rocks
unconditionally — paint set a null sentinel and never touched the entity,
so designation was cosmetic only. Pawns auto-chopped nearest unfelled tree.
* Added chop_designated: bool to Tree, mine_designated: bool to Rock and
BigRock (footprint-aware: paint on any of the 4 footprint cells flags
the boulder). Save/load round-trips the flag.
* world.gd._on_designation_added 'chop'/'mine' cases now find the entity
at the painted tile and flip the flag. _on_designation_cleared inverts.
* Boot seed auto-designates SAMPLE_TREES / SAMPLE_ROCKS / SAMPLE_BIG_ROCKS
so the cabin demo still produces wood + stone end-to-end without
requiring the player to paint first.
Also from the same audit (researcher mapped all 11 WorkProviders):
* DoctorProvider + EatProvider now pre-check reachability with
pathfinder.find_path before issuing a job, mirroring HaulingProvider's
pattern. Previously they handed out doomed walks that JobRunner had to
cancel, busy-spinning at 20 Hz.
Verified end-to-end via MCP runtime: undesignated tree/rock returns null
from provider; paint flips the flag and provider returns a chop/mine job;
un-paint clears the flag; BigRock footprint paint works on any of the 4
cells.

A new entity for multi-tile rock formations. Same duck-typed contract as
single-tile Rock so MineProvider scans both transparently via World.rocks.
Differences from Rock:
• Occupies a 2×2 footprint anchored at origin_tile (top-left).
• Renders a single 32×32 Sprite2D drawn from the FG_Grasslands_Spring 2×2
cluster sprites at (22, 3) brown and (30, 3) gray.
• Blocks pathfinding on all four footprint tiles — pawns route around it.
• MineProvider asks `rock.approach_tile_for(pawn.tile)` for the walk
destination, so the pawn stands beside the boulder instead of trying to
path into the blocked footprint. Rock returns its own tile (walkable);
BigRock picks the nearest walkable perimeter neighbour.
• Mining takes 480 ticks (4× Rock) and drops 4 stone, one per footprint tile.
All init work happens in setup() rather than _ready(): the calling pattern is
`add_child(big); big.setup(origin)`, and _ready fires inside add_child with
origin_tile still at its zero default — anything reading origin_tile from
_ready would stamp the pathfinder at the wrong tile.
Wired through SaveSystem: factory preload, spawn-priority tier 0 (same as
Rock — static structures spawn before pawns), and a `&"big_rock"` factory.
World seed adds two demo boulders near the small-rock cluster
(65, 58) + (56, 64) so the visual contrast is on-screen from boot.
